John Denver - The Children of Bethlehem lyrics

[John Denver - The Children of Bethlehem lyrics]

The children of Bethlehem
One cold winter's night
Were wakened by singing and a heavenly light
With whispers and murmurs on pattering feet
The children of Bethlehem
Came into the street

The people were sleeping all safely in bed
The children heard singing
In the sky overhead they heard
"Peace will be with you whoever you are
Oh, come to the stable
Come, follow the Star"
And the children of Bethlehem
That cold winter's night
Came down to the stable
They followed the light
Now the roosters were crowing
At the dawning of day the baby lay sleeping
In the manger he lay

The children of Bethlehem came in two by two
They came to the manger
That the Star brought them to
They came to the manger
Where the sweet Baby lay
The children of Bethlehem showed us the way
